The following birds are available for sale at this time. They are priced so the average person can afford them. So don't pass up some good birds just because they're not priced at several hundred dollars each. If you're at the other end of the financial spectrum, you need to realize that these are pedigreed animals and not street pigeons. The day of the five-or-ten-dollar pigeon is long gone. They are priced so I can receive some reasonable return on the investment I have made in breeding stock, feed, time caring for them, etc.

What is a pigeon really worth? The value of a pigeon depends on three factors, and you can read about them here.

You will find some rare-colored birds among those listed. It is important to remember that we are a FLYING loft, not a COLOR loft. Our rare colors are required to fly right with the other birds. We sell youngsters that we raise out of our flyers, but we will seldom sell the rare-colored flyers themselves because we will be using them later as breeders.

I am selling pigeons, not paper, but almost all of those listed below have extensive pedigrees. I will provide whatever pedigree information I have on each bird listed. Feel free to email me and request an electronic copy of the pedigree of any bird listed here.

PLEASE NOTE: The USPS has recently hit us with a significant increase in postal rates, in some cases almost double what they had been. Therefore, if birds are to be shipped to you (shipping to destinations in the lower 48 continental USA only), the shipping charge (postage plus box) will be as follows: $80 for one or two birds, $120 for 3 birds, and $160 for 4 birds to cover the cost of postage and a special USPS-approved shipping box. Where possible I will try to get specific postage charges for your postal zone and the weight of the shipment. The cost of the box is then added to the actual postage. (4 or more birds means multiple boxes. Multiple boxes are often cheaper than using one of the larger boxes that are available. This is because the post office charges are based on size as well as weight. They charge significantly more for any box that is more than 1 cubic foot, regardless of weight.)

Payment can be made via money order or bank check (I do not accept personal checks). You can use Visa or Mastercard by clicking on the Paypal logo below if you prefer. Paypal "friends and family" is the preferred method of payment.

	0.	Newly available: Stainless steel Racing Pigeon Sputnik "drop cage", (sun porch, or release pen). This particular type of trapping is one of the most popular. It comes not assembled. It is a great way to settle your young birds, yet keep them protected. Four drop down spots can be closed by hand to protect the birds. When you’re ready to let the birds out you pull the cord to swing open the door. Don’t pay $600 or more for a quality sputnik when we can get you one for a lot less. Dimension roughly 47 x 23 x 25. (Click on each photo to expand.) Made from quality materials. Some assembly required. Nuts and bolts only. Usually takes about 25 mins. Very well made! $350 plus shipping. Email 5307wolfe@gmail.com and put "sputnik" in the subject line to request additional informal information.

	1.	June hatch almond cock no. 5513a. This is a large pigeon. He was too late to make it onto my YB team but his older brother did make it and flew just fine in the few races we had this year due to all the bad weather this fall. 5513 is primarily HVR and Janssen. His parents are the paternal grandparents of my 2023 Champion Bird in the Banks of the Wabash series of races that year. As is the case with almost all almond cocks he should get darker with each moult and develop more flecking as well. Full pedigree. Price: $75.
	2.	SOLD May 2025 hatch grizzle no. 5425. This is a large pigeon, appears to be hen, but sex is not guaranteed. (I am about 90% confident she is indeed a hen, but still not sure.) She was bred from a pair of my flyers, a grizzle cock no. 3676 and a blue bar hen no. 3727. Sire has flown 8 races out to 200 miles and has a 2nd-place finish at 120. Dam has flown 9 races out to 200 miles. Sire's side is Janssen and long-distance Delbar; dam's parents are a pair of blue bars from the dispersal of the estate of the late Paul Anderson (PNA Loft) in Southern California. Paul was known as a very successful flyer there, especially in one-loft races, but also was quite successful in his own club. Full pedigree. Price: $100. - Sold (RC)
	3.	Early May hatch blue check cock no. 5456. Unflown because I had no room for him in the YB flying loft. Sire unflown but is out of bird that was trained to 90 miles and then pulled for breeding. Paternal grandmother is out of an AU Registered Champion and is also down from an AU Elite Champion. Dam is a reduced indigo check 1022 and is a full sister to reduced 1054, a race winner. Maternal granddam is 6464.a full sister to 2 race winners, one of which won multiple diplomas. The parents of 6464 are a full brother to RRV 860 and a dominant opal bar out of an AU Champion. Price: $75.
	4.	SOLD Hatched this past May, almond hen no. 5465. She is Janssen/HVR/VanLoon. Her dam is a full sister to "Three Seconds Behind", the 2023 Banks of the Wabash Challenge Champion Bird. and is 1/2 Ken Christopher VanLoon. 5465 was not raced as a YB because she just missed the cutoff for my 2025 YB team. Her older brother did make the cutoff and successfully flew 2 races this past fall. Her ground color is light and she is not as flecked as I would like, but these lighter almonds like her often get darker and more flecks with each succeeding moult. Here's the almond color down from some very good flying stock. Price: $150. - Sold (TC)
	5.	SOLDBlue bar cock 5406, May hatch. Sire is a recesssive opal that has flown six races including twice from 200 miles. He placed 5th on one of those 200's. He is 3/4 Kastle Opal, which are primarily Evans Gabys. Dam is a true silver (dilute blue) that flew two short races as a young bird and two more as a yearling. Full pedigree. Price: $75 - Sold (VH)
	6.	2024 white splash cock no. 672 out of a black/wf cock bred by Ken Christopher and a pied blue bar hen that I raised and sent to the Ohio Classic Race in 2018 where she placed 31st out of 204 and shared in the prize money for handler Tom Tomes of Ohio. Sire was down from Gallo loft and a black splash hen bred by Ken Weyer. Dam is primarily Janssen with a touch of the old-line long-distance Delbars. Limited pedigree on sire's side, full pedigree on dam's side. Price: $50
	7.	SOLD Blue check hen LIMA 199-20. Small compact hen with extensive race record having flown a total of 17 races out to 200 miles, including a 2nd-place finish at 120 miles vs 83 birds, 6th vs 97 burds from 120, and 19th out of 102 at 100 miles. Her sire is WCOF 4801-14 who is out of WCOF 7142, a son of 4012, my best flyer of the early 2000's. 4801 is Janssen/Engels and his mother is an AU Registered Elite Champion. I consider 4801 to have been one of my best breeding cocks over the years. 199's dam is 4810-14, a qualmond that flew 3 short races as a YB and was then moved to the breeding loft where she remains today. 4810's sire was an AU Marathon Ace Pigeon and dam was runner-up AU Marathon Ace. Price: $100 - Sold(TC)	;
	8.	May hatch 2025 blue bar cock no. 5420, carries the gene for barless. Sire is 9436-19, a barless blue that flew 5 races out to 120 miles prior to being moved to the stock loft and also carrying the gene for recessive opal. So there is a 50% chance 5420 will also carrie that opal gene. Dam is a blue check hen I obtained from the dispersal sale of the loft of the late Paul Anderson (PNA Loft of Southern California). Paul was known as a very successful flyer in both local and one loft races. Price: $75.
	9.	May 2025 hatch white grizzle cock no. 5412. This is actually a homozygous (pure) grizzle which means all of his young will be some form of grizzle. He was weaned too late to put on the current YB team and was set aside in case I needed him for breeding. At this point it does not appear that I will need him since I will have both his parents. Both parents are on the current OB team. Sire has flown 4 races out to 200 miles and dam has flown twice from 100 and twice from 120. 5412 is a blend of Janssen, Delbar, HVR and Wegge. His paternal grandfather, a pure Wegge, has flown 20 races out to 350 miles. Fully pedigreed. Price: $100.
	10.	2023 grizzle cock no. 3676. This is the sire of the grizzle hen shown above in lot 2. He is a member of my flying team and has flown a total of 8 races out to 200 miles. (We are a small independent club and at this point we don't fly anything past 300 miles due to the expense and some years we don't even get that far.). He has a 2nd-place finish at 120 miles and has also been very productive as a breeder. I need to make room in both my racing and breeding lofts, as well as to cut down on total numbers of birds because as I get older it becomes more of a chore each year. 3676 is out of a pair of "white grizzles", so it would be reasonable (but not a foregone conclusion) to assume he is a homozygous grizzle, which means all his offspring whould be grizzle. His pedigree includes the old-line Wegges, long-distance Delbar and Janssen on the sire's side; and mostly Janssen on dam's side with a bit of Hofkens. Sire's background includes an AU Registered Champion as well as siblings of AU Elite Champions. Price: $100
	11.	SOLD Here's a smaller 2023 blue bar hen no. 3727. She has flown nine races including twice from 200 miles, and she has a 3rd-place finish at 120 miles as a yb and an 8th @ 120. She was bred from a pair of birds purchased from the final dispersal sale of the pigeons from the loft of the late Paul Anderson (PNA Loft) of California. Her pedigree shows mostly birds with Paul's bands on but there are a few from some of the top flyers just a few generations back. Price: $75 - Sold. (TC)
	12.	Here's a very large almond cock no. 5358-25. I don't really like them this big but some of larger males in this family have flown fairly well for me. He was not settled here as a young bird because I was intrigued by his color and his size and decided I would hold him back for breeding purposes. As almost always happens when I do this, I just don't have room for him in my breeding loft. His pedigree shows him to be a full brother to the pigeon that won Champion Bird at the 2023 Banks of the Wabash Challenge. That fact alone would be a good reason to keep him but I have plenty of birds from that particular family, so here he is at a very reasonable price. Price: $100.
	13.	SOLDLate August hatch spread recessive opal no. 5376, almost certainly a hen. Parents are a blue check cock who flew 500 miles and carries reduced, and a reduced spread hen. I originally thought this would fledge out into a nice laced spread reduced, but it looks more like a typical spread recessive opal. Upon reviewing its pedigree I discovered that both parents do have the recessive opal gene a few generations back and apparently it carried forward several generations on both sides. Price will increase significantly when she finishes the moult, at which time I will post a new picture. Price: $50 - Sold (RJE)
	14.	SOLD June 2025 hatch reduced blue hen no. 5519, possibly also recessive opal, as I have the opal gene floating around among my family of reduced pigeons. Sire flew 500 miles and he goes back to some very good flyers on both sides. Dam is Janssen and HVR, so that makes. 5519 is mostly Janssen but she does have some HVR in her as well. Price: $75 - Sold (RJE)
		****DRAGOONS***DRAGOONS****
		Folks have been asking me for Dragoons for the last three years and it has been difficult for me to accomodate them because my breeding has always been concentrated on my Racing Homers. So I made it a point to push my Dragoons a little harder the last two years so now I finally have a few pair to offer for sale. I don't keep very many so at this time most of what is available will be blacks and whites. I will be posting only a pair or two at a time (when available) because most of what I raised were later in the year and I am not sure of the sex of many. In the meantime, feel free to email me to see if anything is available as I am still sorting things out.
